Subject:Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w40 in a Wasserboxer?
From:Michael Diehr

I bought a bunch of Mobil 1 TDT 5w40 oil for my TDI beetle, and am
wondering if it'd be a decent oil to use in a Vanagon wasserboxer
(about 10k on a rebuild, doesn't burn much oil).  I used to use Mobil
1 synthetic 15w50 in the old engine and liked it.    It would be
easier to just buy a single oil....  anyone think the TDT 5w40 would
be too thin?
